Questions for Hasbro? - Session 35
On July 23rd, we sent another batch of questions to Hasbro for their Star Wars Question and Answer feature. Today, we've got the answers to those three questions!
1. OK, you've said recently that you have no more plans for figures from the Star Wars Holiday Special. But, how about giving us Chewbacca's family members via the nifty Comic Packs series? The Wookiee family has been featured in the comics a few times, so it seems like the perfect venue to get us the Chewbacca/Mallatobuck (Chewie/Malla) and Attichitcuk/Lumpawaroo (Itchy/Lumpy) packs we desperately need.
**That's an interesting suggestion, and since they have appeared in a couple of series (including the classic Marvel series), they are certainly eligible for consideration. We have our hands with a lot of other ideas in the comic packs, but they are not out of the realm of possibility someday.
2. A few years back, you made a Bespin Guard with a removable hat. Is there any chance that you'll eventually incorporate removable hats on all the Imperial Officer figures in the future?
**We'll look into that the next time we create a new imperial officer. Thanks for the suggestion.
3. Once upon a time (2003), you shared a design sketch of the Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker figure planned for 2004. It was a great tease for the figure and a unique look at how many of these figures start out. In addition, there were quite a few "progress reports" made for the development of some of the fan choice figures - things like highlighting paint masters or prototypes as they came along. Are there any plans to maybe share some of these things once again in the future? It was a neat "inside look" and might be a nice tease for some of those 2008 figures.
**We have been revealing the in-progress path of Darth Revan in the pages of Toy Fare magazine, but don't have any plans right now to follow any other figures through the development process. If and when we get back out there with another Fans' Choice poll, we will certanly have periodic updates.
If you've got a question you've always wanted to ask the Hasbro Star Wars Team, then head into our forums to find out how to submit your question!
